Michelle Liebst and Saadu Hashim of Fort Jesus Museum organized a consultation with representatives of Mombasa-based groups connected in various ways to the past that will be evoked in the exhibition 鈥淓ast African Voices Against Slavery鈥� hosted by Fort Jesus Museum and Heritage Centre from 12 September 2024. Local curators, community leaders, descendants of Liberated Africans whose voices will be included in the exhibition, Christian and Islamic moral authorities, and contemporary antislavery activists participated in the consultation and provided feedback on early versions of the exhibition鈥檚 texts and images. They expressed interest in the exhibition鈥檚 ideas and made suggestions. Their feedback was collected by AFRAB鈥檚 junior researchers Maxwell Kibet and Thomas Kadenge, who are preparing the exhibition under the supervision of curator Saadu Hashim and the Fort Jesus team.
